Just convinced a client to avoid topping their cherry tree

That mention of a bad prune hits home for me. Last summer, my neighbor cut his oak tree back to stubs, thinking it would grow faster. I told him it stresses the tree and causes weak branches, but he did it anyway. Now the tree is covered in water sprouts and looks terrible. It's a shame because it was healthy before. Glad your client listened to better advice, do you see a lot of people stuck on bad pruning methods?
