Aylmer reached the final of the Amateur Championship in 1910, beating Harold Hilton 4&3 in the semi-final.[3] However he lost heavily to John Ball in the final. 7 down after 18 holes, he eventually lost 10&9.[4] He met Hilton again in a 1913 semi-final, losing by 1 hole. Aylmer was two up with four holes to play but lost the next three and could only halve the final hole.[5]
Aylmer was secretary to a number of golf clubs. He was at Strathpeffer Golf Club before World War I and was at Ranelagh Golf Club from 1920 to 1929.[6] He then took a similar position at the Roehampton Club.
