Default Prop angle of attack vs age

On older planes, does the angle of attack change ? Does the prop angle
relax like a motorboat prop does after 1 or 2 decades of constant
use ? (fixed pitch of course)

There are some older warriors on the field (20 - 25) years, and it
seems that there props don't have the bite that the new warrior (10
years old) does.

Thanks
