It helps maintain your Golf course, it prevents the green from having a hole in it when someone else is putting. When a pitch mark is repaired the grass will quickly repair itself, with no noticable damage, when it has not been repaired it may cause a brown spot and a large number of unrepaired pitch marks on a green can make it look unsightly.
Around the pitch mark insert the divot tool vertically and flick it backwards so the hole starts to heal do this about 3-4 going round the hole then tap it flat with your putter.
A golf divot can be the chunk of grass that was ripped out of the ground as a result of the golf swing. It can also be the spot from which that grass was removed. Hence replacing your divot is when you replace this chunk of grass to where it came from in the ground.
