Default 50-200 tripod collar

Hi guys

Do you normally shoot with the tripod collar on when using 50-200 (even you leave tripod home)? Sometimes I find it "obstructive" in handling when using hand held only.

i took the collar out when not using tripod cos the collar itself adds another approx. 100-200grams to the lens weight.
