Health issues can take you down regardless of age.  As said I'm well aware of the fact I have a shelf life in this adventure.  I also understand I'll never be a world class shooter or a long-range sniper with a trad bow either.  So I'm just content doing it as long as I can and when it fades I'll have good memories just as I do with playing ball, climbing mountains and all the other stuff I once could do. 
In the end Wood it's about the fulfillment you get out of it.  You've nothing to prove to us internet archery blokes.  Just stay in the hunt/fish as long as you can the ways that you can.  If you lose traditional bow hunting then do it some other way.  Meat tastes the same and when you're sitting beside that animal being thankful for it the gratitude is just as sincere.
May God grace and comfort your journey.
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Lots of us are realizing we can’t do some of the things we used to. It’s a fact of life that if we live long enough we will have to deal with. I’ve come to realize that most of the things I’ve done or have in this life really aren’t important. It does sound like you have a solid plan, get out and do what you can when you can, but keep it prioritized.
Good luck with the future.
