I have the same ball head on a monopod too for shooting motorsports, which I usually do at Road America. That's a fantastic combination. Absolutely no help to your situation lol
If I'm out shooting wildlife shots or sports, I use a sturdy monopod with a gimbal head for the big lenses. It supports the weight and allows me plenty of movement. But it's pretty much useless for any sort of longish exposure shots.
