Dear Ali,
You look a lot younger than 30 years in your picture!
In all seriousness, as mentioned there are people who are competitive in their 70's, so age is no barrier and you have AT LEAST 40 more years! Now if you want to have corporations sponsor you, they usually will want to get some sort of return on their investment so you either have to place well, or even if you do not find a company that wishes to endorse you simply because you are doing something you enjoy doing.
I had a flight instructor who, in his 60's, decided he wanted to get into competitive aerobatics (in airplanes) and ended up as 5th in the nation and if a person can do that, a person can be competitive shooting for quite a long time. All you need is the desire.
