If his shooting bothers you then tell him if he can put 5 in the target in a row you will take him. If it were my call to make I would base my decision on how hard he's trying not how good he is. If he is really making the effort and doing the best he can I would take him as long as there are no safety issues. Maybe you could watch him shoot and give him some pointers. Another idea would be to set his stands where he could only get real close shots.
I don't think you should ever base hunting on someones effort. So the guys is struggling and probably should go to a cross-bow, sometimes its tme to hang up the bow! But I do not think it is fair to the game to send someone out in the woods that has a better chance of wounding a deer then killing it. I love deer hunting and love the outdoors and I have 100% more repect for the animal, then to say "hey buddy you've tried really hard this year I hope you don't wound to many"..If it was my friend I would be honest and help him to find a different option in order to fullfil his hunting needs.
