Default How many bucks over a fork have you let walk this year?

just like the title said I was wondering how many bucks you people have let walk, and I mean within easy shooting range like 0-20 yards and why did you let them walk??



I'll start, I've let 7 walk this year since I have trail camera pics of 5 different shooters and 4 of which I will part with the money to hang him on the wall.

I've let several walk. Too young and small.
