Some drivers together around golf range (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aga

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'range' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'some drivers together around golf' is the wordplay.
'some drivers together' becomes 'aa' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'golf' becomes 'g' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'aa' placed around 'g' is 'AGA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aga that I've seen before include "Eastern leader" , "Muslim title of honour" , "Cooker" , "Kitchen range" , "Swedish stove" .)
