Survivial tactics.
Professional mode, as all of us who have beaten it can tell you, is extremely hard. Whether it is the lack of finding ammunition, the enemies taking more than 10 shots to kill, or if it's just being a whole lot stronger, Professional mode is very challenging. To not a very hard point, I could tell you about the Pueblo village, with at least 30 Ganados inside of the village that you can kill, it is hard. Some tactics that you can use to survive are to conserve ammo by killing everyone in the special way that I kill them. What you do is shoot them once in the face. After you shoot them, you should be able to kick them, so kick them to the ground and then slice their bodies with a knife while they are lying on the ground. This will save you ammo, kill them, and you have no risk of getting hurt. Go into a house, and block the door with a dresser. Now, using the handgun, shoot one or two holes in the door so that the door is still standing while you can see out. Using the hole, you can shoot people outside of it while they cannot hit you. Another tactic you can try is to save your grenades, and use them only on massive parties.
Hope this helps.
