Before the golf season begins, Cantigny Golf Academy is offering a winter teaching series so golfers don’t get teed off once they hit the greens.

The series of classes is being taught by Greg Baresel, staff PGA professional, according to Cantigny Golf Academy. The series began last month, and three more classes will be held, which are open to the public. The classes are designed for all skill levels.
