The videos of them look awesome, but the few guys here who have tried them have had issues with consistant flight.

Could you alleviate the stirrup problem by cutting down an aluminum arrow to extend pass the stirrup. No experience on how they fly, the videos of the gobbler's head getting lopped off are awesome though.

Or have some longer bolts made.

I am going to try my set up on opening day and will let everyone know how it works out, providing I see a turkey. lol Going to a longer shaft length to get past the stirrup may not work to well.
