Yes, with some caveats. Remember the tragic case where a young boy accidentally killed himself at a gun show when he was allowed to handle a powerful weapon. Even with supervision (and no one was prosecuted in this case as far as I am aware) things can go wrong. I am in favor of youngsters learning about all kinds of weaponry.

Archery is a wonderful sport. Make sure, by talking with local experts at clubs or organizations, that your son is old enough, and that all training and activities will be supervisedby knowledgeable, certified and trained adults. Then make sure that he first is interested, and that he has the right equipment and the right attitude about safety. Don't just let your son have a bow and arrow, and then let him hike Into the Woods with friends. That would be a recipe for tragedy.
