This is very common on a high miles trans.
Try changing the gear oil.
I use 80/90 weight GL 5 oil.
You may have worn out syncrows and/or worn shift hub enguagement teeth on the side of the gears.
The easy way out is to stop downshifting
It wears out the trans on the coast side. Use your brakes and quit ownshifting!!!!!
