Dennis "Boots" Woodall (October 9, 1921 – January 27, 1988) was an American country musician who performed from the 1930s to the early 1960s in the South and Midwest. He was born in Paulding County, Georgia. After playing in several bands and serving in World War II, he formed the Radio Wranglers, which became the TV Wranglers in 1949. The TV Wranglers appeared on WAGA-TV in Atlanta, Georgia.

Woodall and Bill Lowery helped start the National Recording Corporation. As vice-president, he produced sessions and helped release many recordings on the label. One notable release was Robbin’ The Cradle by Tony Bellus, which reached the Top 40 in 1959; Woodall also worked on a Bellus album afterward.

He died in an automobile accident in Atlanta in 1988. Woodall was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 1997.
