This is a pretty cool center shafted blade putter. It's from Odyssey's White Hot Tour series. The White Hot Tour series features a bronzed tour finish which reduces glare. It has "tour-tuned" weight ports in the sole, which Odyssey uses to optimize the weight proportionally to the shaft length.
Of course, the best thing about these Odyssey putters is their inserts. This White Hot Tour #2 has a resilient elastomer core and a thin outer surface infused with urethane. This insert is slightly firmer than that of the White Hot XG for better feedback and a fine-tuned responsiveness.
I like this putter. The shaft in the center gives me a great guide for lining up square to the target. I would recommend this putter for those golfers that have a "straight back to straight through" stroke as opposed to the "open and shut the gate" putting stroke. (If this is more your style, check out the Odyssey White Hot Tour #2 Putter.)
Remember: this is a player's putter. This is the closest thing to a custom putter as you will find. With the weight ports in the sole dependant on the length of the shaft, the putter is weighted specifically for the length. This combined with the firmer insert gives the putter a balance and sensitivity that better players look for.
Another high performance putter you should check out is the Odyssey Black Series i #6 Putter. It's very similar, and I like the nickel-plated finish of the Black Series better.

[...] like this putter, but it reminds me of a putter I like even better: the Odyssey White Hot Tour #2 Putter. I like the Odyssey better because of the sole weighting. It has "tour-tuned" weight ports in the [...]
