I understand if you don't make the time limit that its no questions asked. And I guess the handler should have left 3 hours early instead of 1 1/2 hours. We tried several times to call the contact numbers and get better directions but never got anybody to answer. In a big hunt like this I know we should have left way early but the contact numbers aint worth nothing if the guys don't answer them. Like I said I'm not complaining about the dead line I know the rule and I agree but a hunt this big should have better contact numbers. I left messages with both and never got a return call.

Is with today's technology, why is there not a physical address posted for GPS use... Would save a ton of headache. I was there and I had no reception on my cell.

knowing there was no service at the club, another number or a landline would have been better. maybe next year.

I was the handler and i guess unless you have ever missed a deadline for a big hunt like that you can't understand how bad I feel about it. I finnally found the club in the end. I talked to one of the guys that was listed as a contact. He also said he had no service and told me he was with verizon, well I also have verizon. Although I did not have full service. I pulled my phone out and made a call standing beside the guy. He told me his phone had been ringing since 8 that morning, it all actually boils down to he must have turned it off or ignored it in my opinion. Although aggrevating don't list as a contact unless you want your phone to ring alot. Just as everyone else has said an easy fix to this with our technology today is list a physical address for every club or dont let them hold a hunt. Once again Ben I am very sorry this happen. I also understand that It was my responsibility to get there and in the end I have to take full responsibility for this. I should have left my self 6 hours to drive 2 1/2 instead of 4.
