What method of take is everyone using this year? When does your season start?

I have turkey hunted turkey with a shotgun for 23 years and this year I'll be hunting for the first time with a crossbow, very excited to try somthing new, my season starts April 8th and I have several days off to locate a a flock in a new area before the season and practice with my bow, next year I plan to use a compound bow for turkey but I really like the Remington 870 express magnum so I may just get a new one.
