Well, Mule......that is an answer but it probably belongs over in the candy/gum section (if there is one) so I guess you don't win anything. I don't know anything about Roy Clark's son, middle or otherwise but..... since no one else took a shot at the answer here it is.............  

The Jimmy Clark  I was refering to was from I believe Arkansaw & one of the few civilian winners at Camp Perry in pistol shooting when most of the winners were military types.  He was also the father-in-law of Jerry Miculik (sp?) one of the really damn fast revolver shooters in todays world AND (Jimmy Clark) was a famous gunsmith/pistolsmith of our time who (at least his shop if not him personally) worked on my 1911 Bullseye pistol which is why I call it my "Jimmy Gun"!  Can't hardly believe someone in a gun forum wouldn't know Jimmy Clark the Arkansaw pistolsmith...(maybe ya hadda be a bullseye shooter)....unless of course you was Spoofing me??????

Fella's;

Well, if you want to raise the name of Jimmy Clark, the most famous prize has to go to the Scotsman of that monicker.  He was a Grand Prix champion and a winner of the Indianapolis 500, in 1965 I think.  I also think it was the first win with a rear-engined car, though I could be in error on that one.

I can't believe nobody on this board knows much about Hee Haw trivia.

I didn't pay much attention, except for the Hee Haw Honeys, kind of like the Daisy of Hazard show.
