                                                                                                                                                                            Because if you don't use some type of surface to practice putts that is similar to a putting green,you won't get used to doing putts. You can be the greatest putter in the world,but if you're not used to the surface,you won't do well. It's more important to get used to the surface of a practice mat than just becoming a great putter. 

 Do this little test;buy a practice mat then go over to your local golf course and do a practice session of putts on a green and do comparisons. But practice on the mat for a week to 2 weeks first. There are various types of practice mat material from foam and rubber to plastic. But it's usually a combination of the three. So remember to test various practice mats out to get used to them.
