I am getting up in my years as well but have been playing for a long time. My suggestion is just practice at a steady consistent pace. Take one thing at a time and learn it.

I have found over the years that skill levels tend to advance Plato’s, which means we practice the same thing for a while and then one day you will just get it , and you will be onto something new for while, and then one day perhaps weeks or even months you will just get it again and so on.

Don’t let your age scare you, if anything we are more focused than say a typical teenager , we old guys know how to set a goal and achieve a goal.

I would suggest that you be open minded when learning and try a little of every style I know you will find your path to being a great player. At least that is what I keep telling myself :)
