After my posting that I don't use a monopod for my 300 2.8 I had a photographer that showed up to shoot the football game I was covering. He knows who I am, and how much football I shoot, he says straight up "you should use a monopod, it would help you" "Help with what, I don't need one", he had no answer to that. But then being built physically bigger than him, I could understand his statement.
I agree with that, everyone has different needs. For instance, unless I shoot all day using a 400mm lens, me being the 350lb guy I am will never use a monopod/tripod unless I'm using slow shutter speed or in very low light.
for me, monopod = something you use when you can't shoot handhold for whatever reason when you should be able to in normal situation.
