Kudos to the OP for making an attempt.

Good point. Time seems to be of the essence in some such circumstances, and maybe how "isolated" the area is. Shortly after having read that article about how the Japanese tend to "let it lie", I found a range finder near where I was practicing bunker shots. Thinking of that article, I left it lying there for a good while, waiting to see if the "loser" might return soon. Finally gave up and walked it over to the pro shop. Returned to my practice area and was approached by a fellow who inquired about a lost range finder. He had dropped it on the way to hit a bucket of balls and he had finally finished and was retracing his steps. Interesting.
