I copied a Facebook post by our friend Harold Rushton. I hope you don't mind.
"Unfortunately, we must say a final farewell to our long time Field Target friend, Tom Holland. As I understand it, Tom passed away on Tuesday night. He was an avid airgun tinkerer, pellet connoisseur and all around good guy. Tom was also a very accomplished crossbow archer having won many titles over the years. RIP Tom. You will be missed. 😢"

I had met Tom at a few FT events. He was a quirky, upbeat fellow and had a wealth of information he was excited to share. Truly an asset to the sport and will be missed.

I never got to meet Tom in person but he always came across as one of the finest ambassadors of the sport. He will be missed.

Very sad news of Toms passing.
Never met him, but had quite a few in depth conversations on Slugs & AG tuning in recent years.
Condolences to his Family & Friends :'(
