I have always been told to never guide the guide. You admit he knows his area, that he is known as being the man for big bucks in his area, and that proof of his success is lined on his walls. Why in the world would you doubt this guy? I understand where you are coming from and I believe the same as you. The only difference is, I am hunting (and I am sure you are at home as well) a very small area compared to what this guy has available to him. Look at it this way, moving locations will allow you to hunt more of a massive amount of land. What if the area you start out in the morning is a non producer. Do you really want to sit there all day then? Listen to the guide, he is still in business for a reason!
