Double gloves. Iron headcovers. Me and My Golf logo on the cap.
You think you know Aaron Rai - but you really don’t.
Every detail that looks a little unusual comes from something deeper: a father’s discipline, Wolverhampton winters, and loyalty that money can’t buy.
He’s not chasing image. He’s honouring where he came from.
You’re wrong about Aaron Rai.

Here's why you're wrong about Aaron Rye. Double rain gloves, iron head covers, and a me and my golf logo cap might not scream rock and roll. But what appears as geekiness is in fact rooted in childhood values. Aaron Rye started his journey in the working class town of Wolverhampton To give his son the best chance of success at the game he loved, his father saved up for Aaron's first set of blades. After every round and range session, Aaron's father would clean the grooves with a safety pin and baby oil before packing them back into their head covers ready for the next day. Fixated by his father's attention to detail, Aaron soon took over. His diligence and his iron covers haven't left his bag to this day. And those two all weather gloves he sports are born out of long practice sessions in cold English winters. Cheaper than Cabretta leather, the all weather gloves kept his hands warmer, lasted longer, and offered better purchase through the swing, a habit he hasn't broken to this day. And whilst the sponsor on his hat might not be the slickest logo, the YouTube sensations Me and My Golf are no gimmick. They're Aaron's long time coaches, the guys who shaped his move and stuck by him. He wears their logo because loyalty matters more than brand noise. After almost ten years at the highest ranks of professional golf, Rank continues to clinch victories against the world's best and quietly thanks his parents afterwards. He's tier Scottish wins to etch his name in history, and in 2021 claimed a PGA Tier card, all with an unwavering respect for the values that shaped him. You're wrong about Aaron Rai.
