If you're still having a good time, that's all that matters.
My Dad is 74, 6'-4, 270lbs and will be going for knee surgery later this month because both knees are due for a retread. I bet he put on over 60 miles this November in some nastiest terrain, frozen over muskeg, blown over willows, thick tamarack, but the stubborn ol' fart wouldn't quit. We'd get back to the cabin, quick bite to eat, couple of rums, then snoring before 9:00. 4 o'clock in the morning it was like an old age home there, lights were all on and we're all wondering around the cabin waiting for legal light.
My Dad first quit hunting about 10 or 12yrs ago, he's quit every year since, LOL!
If you figure its time to move on to the next phase, I hope you enjoy the time you still get to spend a field, if you decide to go after deer again next fall it'll still be an option for you I hope.
