Webelos Career Arrow

Step 5 Center Your Work

Use the legal paper and ruler to measure out a guide for each arrow based on the career arrow information.  Center the guide on the arrow shaft and mark your starting point with masking tape (allow about 1” fudge room as these always tend to run longer than expected). 

Observe the fletching of the arrow and the arrowhead position.  Determine on which side the arrow lays flat (not lying on a fletching and with the flat of the arrowhead fully displayed).  This is the back of the arrow.  Place a piece of masking tape on the back side of the arrowhead to help keep your place.
