TUCKAWAY COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Franklin, WI, USA
Designed by Ken Killiaick Nugent


Tuckaway Country Club sits in Franklin, a suburb south of Milwaukee in southeastern Wisconsin. The course was designed by Ken Killian and Dick Nugent, a prolific Midwestern design partnership active from the 1960s through the 1990s. Killian and Nugent collaborated on dozens of courses across the Great Lakes region, often working with rolling terrain and incorporating strategic bunkering and green complexes that reward thoughtful play.
The Franklin area features gently rolling topography typical of glaciated Wisconsin landscapes, and Tuckaway's routing likely takes advantage of natural elevation changes and mature tree corridors. Killian-Nugent designs from this era generally emphasize playability for a range of skill levels while presenting strategic options off the tee and into greens. Their work tends toward parkland character with defined fairways, strategically placed hazards, and greens that require careful approach work.
Tuckaway operates as a private country club serving the greater Milwaukee metropolitan area. The club provides a traditional country club experience with golf as the centerpiece, complemented by social and dining amenities typical of suburban private clubs in the region. The course serves its membership for daily play and club competitions throughout the Wisconsin golf season, which runs from spring through fall given the northern climate.
