Natural Target Pruning Guidelines
Image Source - TREES, ASSOCIATES, and SHIGO (2 CD set).
Remove most of the branch by cutting from 1 to 2. make cuts at 1 and 2 as close as possible. Cut from A to B, but do not injure the branch collar.
Never put a cutting tool behind the branch bark ridge. When removing a branch, speed the tool at the end of the cut to avoid splitting the branch.
