[Mkguild] FW: Looking for advice

I suggest thicker and zoom.  Fill 15/16ths of the field with the symbol.
 The outer edge double in thickness, the rest scaled up to fit.... and
maybe a different angle between the elements would make it less confusing.

This archery merit badge has the arrow at an angle.  I think that makes it
alot more obvious that its not constructed like a crossbow - that
almost-right-angle junction throws my eyes and comprehension for a loop.
