We present an analytic proof of the relationship between the Calabi-Futaki invariant for a K\"ahler manifold relative to a holomorphic vector field with a nondegenerate zero and the corresponding invariant of its blowup at that zero, restricting to the case that zeros on the exceptional divisor are isolated. This extends the results of Li and Shi for K\"ahler surfaces. We also clarify a hypothesis regarding the normal form of the vector field near its zero. An algebro-geometric proof was given by Sz\'ekelyhidi by reducing the situation to the case of projective manifolds for rational data and using Donaldson-Futaki invariants. Our proof will be an application of degenerate localization.
