If he's taking multiple shots with a gun, I would not be comfortable at all with him with a bow in the woods. One week is an awfully fast turnaround to be "hunt ready." Teaching him about all of the nuances about bow hunting will no doubt make him a better hunter overall, and it will likely be a tough pill to swallow if you tell him he's not going to be allowed to bow hunt this year. Encourage him to get a bow, and practice, and maybe even sit with you, but no shooting until late season, with a couple months of practice. Just my opinion, but that's how I would handle it.
