Boy does it matter!!!!
Working all week at Farm Bureau Tour Event with a player. Working on full swing and "checking" on the putting. It is amazing how painful a good ball striking round and a poor putting round can be. In fact, I would go to say that poor putting makes golf the least amount of fun possible.

With that said, make sure all of this is not just talk, you need to be walking the walk. Don't go a day without working on your hinges, tracing the line, knowing the amount of accumulator #3 you use, or using a stationary head. Even if you check them only for a minute. It is so vital to "lowering" those scoring averages and winning those matches.

Doing the math on a great ball striker it is easy to see that putting is AT LEAST 40% of the score. Not to mention the "momentum" that is carried and lost during a tournament or round by the putter. Taking it a step further it is always the last "shot" of the hole or round or tournament and we all know the excitement of the last chapter in the book.

Watching the majors we all kinda feel the pressure of the players over that last putt to win a major. You get that "hair raising" feeling just watching, IMAGINE WHAT THEY FEEL LIKE. So considering the amount of "pressure" that putting naturally places on the player is the final "nail in the coffin" when it comes to a reason your putting stroke mechanics should be magnificant.
