This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the Straw badge in Traditional Skills.

People have used bows and arrows for millennia.  Let's try to build an arrow!  

 
 

Here's one way to do it:


Minimum requirements:
  - Make an arrow
  - Fletched and straight
  - You don't need to make the arrow head
  - This bb can only use materials that existed 200 years ago

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - The materials you're going to make your arrow from
  - Making the shaft
  - Fletching
  - Attaching the arrow head
  - Finished arrow
  - Short video of you successfully shooting the arrow with a bow
        - Please consider wearing safety glasses
