Do you think it could be because of my reflexes getting worse as I age? I'm only 29, but I feel like maybe they aren't as good anymore.

It could be true that your reflexes are changing over time, and if that is true then maybe that is a factor.  You could take a “reflex test” and see how your reflexes compare to people your age who are at the same fitness level as you.   Or you could do a special exercise like “mirror tracing” where you point to a dot and then look in the mirror and touch your fingertip to the same spot on your reflection’s fingertip.
