I have been told "Avoid using exceptions for control flow". If you know something might throw an exception and you can check for it, do that instead.
A try block is also greedy and you may end up swallowing more than what you were hoping for, which can be a PITA for chasing down odd errors.
Yeh, in statically typed languages you can at least easily filter what you wanna catch :/
