Summary: I love this putter! I had been a mallet guy when I started, I switched to blade putter for awhile (STX & odyssey df330), but when it was time for a change I tried every putter at 3 different local golf stores. I tried everthing and did not discriminate based on price or style.
The White hot rossie, just felt right. The mallet looks a bit odd, but It was smooth. The ball just glided nicely off the putter and had a nice roll that did not feel forced.
I bought my WH Rossie off of ebay for $31, so I got it for a steal. I have been happy with it on the course.
The putter is soft but not too soft.
Once you get used to the non mallet type mallet, the putter is golden on the green.
I am more confident on my puts from 15 ft to 3 ft.

Summary: Went to my local golf store to demo some putters (it was time for a new one). Spent a good while trying everything on the rack, and then checked out the used bin, and decided to give this one a try among others. I must admit I was predisposed towards a blade putter and didn't like the way this one looked, but as i putted and putted i could not eliminate this putter from the ones i narrowed it down to, and eventually I felt this was the best putter for me out of the bunch i tried. Once the guy gave me $50 for a price, i was sold! Still haven't had the chance to get it out on the course for any long putts yet, but like people have said on here, within 10 feet the thing rolls the ball like it has a magnet for the hole. Great feel.

Summary: i've just bought the "phil mickelson" putter from odyssey. a friend of mine told me "it's an amazing club" if you take it right handed... i was going pretty bad on greens lattely, so i trusted him, and bought it. i've never had sensations like this. didn't missed a put under 2yrds, and got 3 over 10yrds...greatest putting i ever had. it's a little short club, so you'll be a bit bent , but you'll see better your line. hope you'll have the same surprise i had. best wishes.

Summary: Just picked this up yesterday and man am I glad I did. The new insert looked a little funky but man what feel it provides. Took it out to the practice green yesterday and putts were dropping from everywhere, next took it out for 9 holes and shot a par 36. Love this putter and at only 169 Canadian it's a bargain.

Summary: I've been in the face-balanced mallet putter market for several months now. No matter what I tested out, the Rossie always seemed to have a slight advantage.
I had been very hesistant to use a urethane insert putter since you lose a lot of feel -- especially on lag putts. But I was sick of missing 3 footers for par. So I just went out and bought it as a $99 cure (Compared with all the "training aids" out there, this is a relative bargain).
Let me also say that I have a Scotty Cameron Newport and that I love it. However, my stroke is a little straight back-straight through right now, so the face-balanced head does the work on its own.
But seriously, if you have problems with those Mickelson putts, try this Rossie.
