Many of us are attracted to the equipment we use for different reasons. Probably the only identical thread among us is, from time to time we want a full length arrow moving through the chest cavity of critters we cherish.
I've advised my son regarding hunting (and a couple of long-time friends). As long as he follows the law, he should pursue his personal hunting goals, not mine, the neighbors, a celebrity's, etc.
Do what gives him what he wants out of bowhunting. Realize these goals will likely change over time, opportunity, and experience. When he does something, take a certain deer for example, that doesn't fulfill him like he thought it would, don't regret it or feel bad, use the experience to adjust his behavior next time.
