The things I look for are:
1. proper rack angle (you would be amazed at some of the junk out there)
2. lifelike eyes and depth of eyes in the sockets (some look like they are bulging out)
3. proper ear positioing.
4. glossy wet looking nose
5. proper neck width a lifelike positioning of the deer.

here' s mine and i' m very happy. JDinAB
