His other state crowns include the all-around in 1992 with 392 and the doubles in 1995 with a score of 98. He has consistently ranked among the top shooters in the state, and was recognized for his achievements in 1995 as Tennessee Trapshooter of the Year. By the end of 2004, he had registered 258,000 targets. John has been president of Tatum Auto Parts for 35 years.
His contributions to his community resulted in his being named Milan Jaycee of the Year in 1972. He continues to serve as a lieutenant in the Milan Police Reserves. John's wife, Joyce, formerly was an active shooter. They have a son, John Thomas.
