jsc..... Years ago I tried bow hunting...Had the same thing happen to me as happened to your son... Got rid of the bow and went back to my 7MM Weatherby Magnum. Best all aroung rifle on the market IMO...You can load it up or down depending on what your hunting...And it doesn't "beat" you up if you have an active day in the field.
The weather up here has warmed up, so the hunting has been a little slow this last couple weeks...Expecting a change in the next week or 10 days.... Hope so..Our general season ends on the 28th.
