A shooting buddy had a bow made with dirty boo limbs. It was a Big River longbow. You might check with him to see where he got his materials. Do a search for Big River bows and you should find a contact number. I'm sure he has no web site.

I know Vince at Mohawk uses dirty boo veneers.  You might contact him.  Good luck

I have Dirty Boo on one of my Big River Longbows, I don't think John is going to give up any of his supply, if he even has any!

I'm probably talking out of school here, but I recall one particular bowyer telling me he just ran a torch over his 'boo veneers to "dirty" them up.  Good luck!
