He has been called a "unicorn" in the sport, because of his ability to use a one-handed, thumb-in delivery to achieve RPM rates comparable to most two-handed bowlers.

[2] Tackett is a pro staff member for MOTIV bowling balls, Dexter shoes, JoPo Grips, and Genesis kinesiology tape.

At the 2018 WBT World Men's Championships in Hong Kong (November 24–December 5), Tackett won two gold medals: Trios (with teammates Kyle Troup and Andrew Anderson) and All-Events.

[1] Tackett's run of victories continued into 2017, as he won the season's opening event on January 14 at the DHC PBA Japan Invitational.

[18] Tackett duplicated his four titles (one major) from the previous season while making a career-high nine championship round appearances, amassing 2017 earnings of over $230,000.

[20] At age 25 years, 329 days, he is the fourth-youngest player in PBA history to reach the ten title plateau (behind Pete Weber, Mike Aulby and Wayne Webb).

[21] Tackett won his 11th PBA title on July 29, 2018, teaming with female professional Liz Johnson to win the Storm PBA/PWBA Striking Against Breast Cancer Mixed Doubles championship in Houston, Texas.

[25] Tackett qualified as the #1 seed for the finals of the 2020 PBA Players Championship, but lost the title match to Bill O'Neill by one pin, 233–232.

[26] On August 1, 2021, Tackett and partner Danielle McEwan won the PBA-PWBA Striking Against Breast Cancer Mixed Doubles tournament, leading the event wire-to-wire (from opening round of qualifying through the finals).

That would only delay Tackett's 2022 title chase, as he and his partner Marshall Kent won the PBA WSOB XIII Roth-Holman Doubles Championship.

On July 31, Tackett won his 16th PBA Tour title in the Storm Striking Against Breast Cancer Mixed Doubles tournament, with partner Diandra Asbaty.

On March 9, Tackett won the PBA Dave Small's Jackson (MI) Classic, defeating Anthony Simonsen in the final match with a convincing 277–199 victory.

[32] Continuing his superb 2023 season, Tackett led the Tournament of Champions qualifying wire-to-wire to claim the top seed, only to lose the March 19 title match to Jason Belmonte.

[33] On April 17, Tackett won the PBA Cheetah Championship at World Series of Bowling XIV in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.

He also became the second-youngest player to reach the 20 title plateau, missing the mark set by Pete Weber by just 14 days.

This gave him the distinction of being the only player in PBA history to qualify as the top seed in four major tournaments during the same season.

[38] In the PBA Super Slam Cup, a special event held for the 2023 major champions, Tackett finished runner-up to Jason Belmonte.

However, Tackett electrified the crowd and TV audience by rolling a 300 game in the semifinal match against Kevin McCune.

Because it occurred in a non-title event, it will not be recognized as an official PBA Tour televised 300, but Tackett did earn a $10,000 bonus for his feat.

[39] For the 2023 season, Tackett led the Tour in earnings with $458,450, which is the second-highest total in PBA history behind only Kyle Troup's record of $496,900 set in 2021.

[42] Although he had yet to win a title in 2024, Tackett tied a PBA record on March 3 by making his fifth consecutive TV finals appearance.

He then defeated top seed Andrew Anderson in the final match, 238–184, to don his second career green jacket.

This win ties Tackett with Brian Voss for 11th place on the all-time PBA Tour titles list.
