He might be better able to manage it if he could learn to shoot with his off arm (i.e. if he’s right-handed, learn to shoot left-handed). Holding an arm straight is much easier on the rotator cuff than pulling a bow.

I’m right-handed but have always shot a bow as a leftie, doing exactly as you said. I’ve had a 55# fiberglass recurve bow since I was 13 (I’m now 70). I also have a damaged rotator cuff in my right shoulder, but can easily pull the bow with my left. ...I had to buy an electric mower a few years ago because I could no longer pull the starter cord on the gas mower. The bow is not a problem.
