I have some professional clients and yes such a critter does exist...

He can walk 20 miles without a peep out of him, he shoots better than most PHs, understands hunting, guns, reloading, photography and many other things that combine to make him a rare breed, and most of all he never complains about a damn thing..He is a rare breed that plays by the rules, he enjoys his whole experience of Africa, and doesn't carry a tape or tally numbers book in his pocket..but he can, if he decides to, pass up medicore animals, even better than average animals waiting for the big one and if he goes home empty then he is Ok with that....Mostly he has 20 or more Safaris under his belt..

The hardest to hunt is the 2nd or 3rd timer, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing syndrome. Of course this does not apply to all 2nd and 3rd timers...

The best to hunt is the first timer as he is in his cups drinking in the whole experience, and that is always a thrill to the PH and to me...It is a great feeling to share that with someone...Your first hunt is your best and you are the ultimate professional on that one...
