Re: HEADREST ?
Jamie: I don't have the headrests, but I did hang a soft rifle scabbard from three caribiners that hook onto the rear screen. The rifle scabbard has two pockets in it that hit me just about where the headrests would mount. I keep my rain pants in one pocket and my rain jacket in the other and on the few occasions when I was hauling it thru the woods and hit something that bumped the two pockets worked fine. Cabelas has one like mine at: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0034739521877a&type=product&cmCat=Search_Results_NYR&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&QueryText=scabbard&N=4887&Ntk=Products&Ntx=mode+matchall&Nty=1&Ntt=scabbard&noImage=0</P>

Thanks for the hint, ordered one yesterday. Looks like this thing will serve as a multi-service accessory ~~~ Never turn down a good place to tote items that a person will need in time out in the woods !!!! Like you, put it on the inside, and take care of the head also >>>>>>>.</P>

Re: HEADREST ?
My machine has the rests. I hadn't noticed them, good or bad, until this thread. I paid attention to them the past couple of trips out. It seems they are out of the way for them most part. I have to lean back farther than seems natural to even contact them. I suppose if you hit a bump wrong they may be good but I like the idea of the gun case better. </P>

Re: HEADREST ?
Jamie: I'm glad you liked the idea. I bought three small caribiners (little key chain sized ones with spring loaded links, see picture below) and then mounted them in the appropriate place on the inside of the rear grill using nylon wire ties. I took the mounting straps off and then just clipped the three D-rings to the caribiners so I could easily take it out when I want to. So far the longest of my deer rifles fits without a problem. The only thing that might be a problem is my turkey gun with the big choke on the end.</P>

Re: HEADREST ?
Thanks for the help. Go in the morning to the general store and pic up three of 'em ....</P>
I have a two gun ( not me ) Big Sky overhead gun rack, which I do love.Mrs. Two Guns & my deer rifles, which are big caliber weapons,.300 & .338, usally rides up there. We always carry a thirdsmaller caliber rifle,( .223 ,204,22-250 or a 22 hornet ) for the boar hogs. ( We have really bad wild hog troubles ) ....That's going to be the perfect home for the smaller weapon. I been tired of keeping it ( smaller weapon ) in a military parachute weapons case, in the back ~~~~ this is going to work out perfect, again, I thank you for the help !!!!!!!! </P>

Re: HEADREST ?
Andrew, </P>
That's a really nice kill !!! Just called Mrs. Two Guns over to take a look, She also agreed !!!!!</P>
Them 'old grunts DON'T come around everyday. A man has to work hard for them !!!</P>
We have had a few nice cooler days last week, but, done turned off hot. Deer's not moving now. And the funny thing, in our Cuddeback cameras, our bucks are still hanging around together, not showing any hints of them going into rut at all. Mrs. Two Guns & myself, took seven bucks between us last week. None of 'em in rut. Just 'ole bucks just passing by, no doe running yet at all !! Weather has them all messed up over here !!! Be glad when the cold weather steps back in !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</P>

Re: HEADREST ?
My 05 900 has every option you can get ...steel top glass w/shield overhead console, full hydro with remotes, heater, wipers, soft doors, winch and more..., I took the headache rack with the head rest off because there is no way to reach the beer cooler without getting off the bota, the other post are correct, they are of no use, to far from your head. If your head goes back far enough to hit one your either passed out or just moments away from an ambulance ride.
