I have the same style as you also and yes it is tough when still hunting!
I use the laser if I miss when stump shooting and also if I find an area I plan on ground standing or building a temporary blind.
I also use a laser form the ground/base of the tree ?I have a tree stand in, to get a number distance markers.

You are right that you need to continue to practice in order to keep the skill accurate
