No I don't think so.Never seen any bamboo darken before under glass.
....Quality deer management means shooting them before they get tough....

I have a caribow longbow that has bamboo limbs without a veneer covering. It was custom made in 2001 and I don't think that it has darkened.
The light color doesn't seem to be a problem hunting. There are a lot of light colored objects out there that we really don't notice until we start looking.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.
