I’ve had this oak for one spring now, it already had some broomish branching so Im attempting to go in that direction. It had very straight long sections that I’ve been trying to shorten and bring some movement too.
A little bit of inverse taper there in the mid/top section of trunk, but probably can’t be helped.
I’ve been pretty conservative with my pruning so I don’t kill the tree. Making sure there is atleast one leaf left on the branch when I chop. Just need some opinions on how to develop this tree/ how drastic of a cut I can make these cuts to get some movement in the top. Thanks and happy fourth!
