Nice tree with great potential. The base has a nice flare. What are your plans for the top? It looks a bit like a slingshot at this point. Perhaps you may choose one of the forks and improve taper?

Yeah while that looks unsightly now, a single apex will be chosen and lots of carving will be done. For now it just growing girth and strength and many branches ,so I can choose what and where i want them.

Thanks, it's been a rough year for me, and some of my trees suffered for it. But I'm finally in a great place and the last week ive spent hours in the garden working on trees that need a lot of work.

Good move IMO. But I'd continue with something similar up a bit - shown with orange line...

Just a little snow. Also the 10 cuttings I took that 8/10 did great and thrived

If you have too many cuttings, I would certainly take a couple off of your hands. Enjoying the progress on this honking one.
