A house RESOLUTION

 

to recognize and honor Gavin Michael Bryan, an outdoorsman extraordinaire, and to congratulate him for winning the 2023 National Wild Turkey Federation's Grand National Poults calling championship.

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives was pleased to learn that ten-year-old Gavin Michael Bryan has captured the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) Grand National Poults Calling Championship; and

 

Whereas, the son of Jason and Jessica Willis Bryan and brother to Kinlee Grace Bryan, Gavin Michael Bryan was born on July 5, 2012, into a family with a strong hunting heritage. It was no surprise that he was in the woods at an early age with a loving family background and a good foundation to help him learn and grow; and

 

Whereas, even as a toddler, he was enjoying the outdoors in God's creation with a fishing pole or a Daisy Red Ryder. With wise mentors, he learned right from wrong, safety while handling guns, all of the best fishing spots, and the importance of being in church on Sundays, all of which has served to make him who he is today; and

 

Whereas, having a strong work ethic has made Gavin easily teachable and eager to learn and given him a tank full of common sense and a kind heart. When he was three years old, he entered his first NWTF turkey-calling contest in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, where he came in third place. There were only three callers, but turkey calling would turn into his passion; and 

 

Whereas, a turkey-calling contest has five judges, and contestants each make turkey sounds that are judged and scored. Since Gavin's first contest, he has competed in several competitions across the Southeast from Virginia down to Mobile, Alabama, and some in between. He won several contests, and in 2018, Gavin entered the supreme contest for turkey calling known as the NWTF Grand National Calling contest with contestants from all over the nation; and

 

Whereas, five years later and after countless hours of dedication to practice turkey calling and preparation, Gavin won the NWTF Grand National Poults Calling Championship at the age of ten; and

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives applaud the outstanding determination of Gavin Bryan who has brought pride to the Palmetto State and who stands as an example to all South Carolinians for setting a goal, working hard, and accomplishing his mission of becoming the NWTF Grand National Poults Calling Champion. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor Gavin Michael Bryan, an outdoorsman extraordinaire, and congratulate him for winning the 2023 National Wild Turkey Federation's Grand National Poults Calling Championship.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Gavin Michael Bryan.
