THE 37TH ANNUAL LAKE OF THE OZARKS SHOOTOUT drew record crowds for nearly two weeks of high-octane excitement and community celebration. The festivities kicked off with the 16th Annual Mini Shootout at Ha Ha Tonka on August 15, presented by Van Subaru, followed by the SHOOTOUT Hall of Fame Dinner at Big Thunder Showroom, the Street Party on Bagnell Dam, and the Poly Lift Boat Lifts Poker Run.

The main event, held August 23–24 on the Grand Glaize Arm at Dog Days Bar & Grill, featured boats and PWC’s setting record speeds, including a thrilling 242 mph set down by Daran-Hybrid. Beyond the speed and spectacle, the SHOOTOUT showcased the Lake community’s generosity, with proceeds benefiting local charities and making this celebration of camaraderie and adrenaline truly unforgettable.
