I use PathDeform (WSM) modifier (animate "Percent") for the arrow "stick", for the arrow head, I used Attachment Constraint (Animation > Constraints > Attachment Constraint) if u don't want to change the arrow head shape.

For this one, the whole arrow are 1 object, use PathDeform (WSM) only, so the arrow head change shape a little bit.

Hi, take a look the motion panel > Path Parameters rollout > Under Path Options group, check "Follow".
