Rossa Daytona Ghost

The Rossa Daytona Ghost shipped in 2010 as a white-finished blade putter, carrying an MSRP of $129 according to intothegrain.com. The white finish was central to the release, and orlandogolfblogger.com described the head as carrying high-contrast alignment cues to match. Both intothegrain.com and orlandogolfblogger.com attribute design input to Dave Stockton, and both describe the head as heel-toe weighted, with intothegrain.com calling it a tour-proven blade and orlandogolfblogger.com describing it as a heel-toe weighted blade.

The Ghost's signature piece is its face insert. intothegrain.com and orlandogolfblogger.com both describe the AGSI+ (Anti-skid Groove System Insert) technology, with intothegrain.com noting 14 polymer-filled grooves milled into the face. Both outlets credit the insert with the same performance claim, that it delivers superior consistency in forward roll on off-center hits, something intothegrain.com says was not shown in tests of other popular putters. That's an opinion shared by both sites rather than an independently verified figure, but the repetition across outlets is notable.

Tour usage is where the record gets busiest. intothegrain.com and orlandogolfblogger.com both list Paula Creamer, Scott Verplank, Martin Laird, Jason Day, Peter Hanson, Darren Clarke, Andres Romero, and Sean O'Hair as users, tying the putter to Creamer's win at the 2010 U.S. Women's Open. intothegrain.com specifically frames Creamer's putter as a prototype used to secure that win, while orlandogolfblogger.com credits the release itself with the victory. Within the Rossa Daytona line, the Ghost stands out on the strength of that white finish and the AGSI+ face, with the Stockton input and the tour résumé forming the bulk of what's on record for this release.
