Draw a pin on Canvas using HTML5 - html

Question

I need to draw a pin like: http://www.clipartbest.com/clipart-9czEGGdRi using HTML5 on a Canvas.
Here's what I have: http://jsfiddle.net/u5jNR/
var canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas');
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
var x = canvas.width / 2;
var y = canvas.height / 2;
var radius = 75;
var startAngle = .9 * Math.PI;
var endAngle = 2.1 * Math.PI;
var counterClockwise = false;
context.beginPath();
context.arc(x, y, radius, startAngle, endAngle, counterClockwise);
context.lineWidth = 15;
// line color
context.strokeStyle = 'black';
context.stroke();
var radius = 20;
context.beginPath();
context.arc(x, y, radius, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
context.fillStyle = 'green';
context.fill();
context.stroke();
the problem I am having is I don't know how to extend the two ends.
Thanks in advance

Here's an example of using path commands to draw a pin.
Assume you have an object defining the pin's x,y & color:
var pin = { x:x, y:y, color:color };
Then you can draw that pin like this:
function drawPin(pin){
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(pin.x,pin.y);
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(0,0);
ctx.bezierCurveTo(2,-10,-20,-25,0,-30);
ctx.bezierCurveTo(20,-25,-2,-10,0,0);
ctx.fillStyle=pin.color;
ctx.fill();
ctx.strokeStyle="black";
ctx.lineWidth=1.5;
ctx.stroke();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(0,-21,3,0,Math.PI*2);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.fillStyle="black";
ctx.fill();
ctx.restore();
}
