great guy.. amazing shooter.. i will say i've heard a 'Lot' of stories about ol Tom.. leave it with he was one of the best ever.. along with Ed Mcgiven.. (his fast and fancy revolver shooting is still a great read), Jerry Micallec..(sp obv) THE fastest DA man alive, and the husband of one of the best IPSC shooters in the world..

end of an era.. Jerry and wife are the only ones still standing... Here's the dream team for a shoot out.. Col.Jeff Copper handling auto's.. Big Bill Jordan on anything.. Tom on shootguns. Ed Mcgiven on revolvers, and of course Elmer Keith reloading.. Skeeter Skelton does the incident report.. oh boy would that rock...

That's too bad. He was legend.

When I saw that headline, it made me want to cry So sad. I liked to see his shooting videos. He was an amazing marksman and seemed to enjoy showing off his shooting prowess.
