OK, this is more of a DIY than a perscription, but, if your hitch fell down into your giddyup, then the first thing you're going to need to do is invert your giddy-up and gently rock it back and forth over an old mattress. Make sure you don't do it over your feet, or the hitch might fall on them and turn your instep inside out. Also don't do it over a hard surface or you might fracture your hitch, in which case you would have to use it on a mosey rather than a giddyup.
Now, if inversion doesn't work, you're going to nead a forked manzanita branch, 200 yards of 10 gauge copper wire, an 8 oz wad of used chewing gum (still moist), a box kite, and a thunderstorm. Place your giddy-up on the ground with the bright side facing up. Hold the branch by the end of the forks with the single end pointing up, and pass it over your giddyup until the end drops down. Mark the spot where it points with a grease pencil. Attach the copper wire to the kite in lieu of string and get it up in the air. Make a small loop in the free end of the wire and press the gum around it. Then press the gum to the spot you marked earlier. (You should wear rubber gloves and hip waders while doing this.) Now, keep that kite aloft and wait for lightning to strike it. When this happens it should set up an electromagnetic resonance that will draw the hitch rapidly to the wire loop where it will adhere to the bubble gum and can then be retrieved when you regain consciousness.
My Complaint:
I am going to presently split my infinitive. Damn! I have split my infinitive.
