I think you have the main thing covered, a friend taking you guys out for the junior hunt. Always best to learn how to hunt/fish or whatever, from somebody that has already done it. Main reason I have not gone out in the marsh yet is because I have very little experience doing it. Second reason is I have very little time nowadays.
For me, I learned how to hunt doves and upland game when I was very young. My dad taught me. Then, I learned how to deer hunt from a friend of my dad's. Pretty much, "Here, get up in that stand and wait for a deer to show up." First deer showed up in 15 minutes and I killed it.
End of the day, your friend will probably have everything that is needed for gutting the deer and getting it out of the field/woods. You should make sure you have some snacks, drinks, ammo for the gun, and if you really want to be prepared, a knife for gutting the deer and some gloves.
Good luck to you and your son.
