I know of someone who tracked all his bugs in a year of coding in both Scheme (dynamic) and ML (static). He said that there was no real difference. The kind of bugs that are caught by static type systems are also quickly identified upon an initial run with a few basic test cases in a dynamic type system. Any bug that was non-trivial to locate turned out to be a deep, logical error, not a surface issue that could be caught by a type checker.
