Slow down your hand movement changing down - you need to give the gears time to match speeds which is what the synchros do - you are just pulling the gears into mesh before they have synchronised.

As the gearbox ages, the synchro rings wear and become less effective but if someone has added anti friction additives to the oil it won't help! 

My first step would to be to change the gearbox oil for fresh ATF fluid.
