Hi fellow APers

I find my tripod a bit inconvenient to carry around everywhere, however I'm sure my photos would benefit from some extra stability.
Been thinking about a monopod, but not sure what to look for, or if the dearer ones will give me much benefit.

Initial purchase is to take shots of wildlife in the snow, and later it will be used for motorsports and general walk around shots.
I don't have any plans for any heavy telephoto lenses to worry about weight-wise


Any help would be greatly appreciated!
