[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 165120, member: 337"] I am a fan of supporting the head if for no other reason than to avoid having to watch that thing tremor/shimmy when it's stowed but I'm idling along (harmonics from main motor) It also is insurance against accidental deployment. I had an extra RAM mount laying around and just bought this to bolt onto the shaft of the trolling motor - for $15 or some such.

If not you wouldn't see all the dash mounts, hard surface mounts like the Johnny Ray, etc. All quality mounts with have shocks/springs. Worst case scenario is when a whiplashing trolling motor head gets oscillating hard enough and wacks the gunwale - not THAT's deceleration. Probably no right/wrong for electronics reasons - I just can't stand that thing bouncing around and going bonkers. [/QUOTE]
