I also have that book. Very good info. Pruning for fruit and pruning for looks are 2 different things. County Extension Service has free seminars every spring . They will show you lots of techniques. Unfortunately Plymouth County extensions was yesterday. Bristol could have one too. Better if you can let someone show you. Really can't screw up other than cutting off this years fruit buds. It will all grow back. Don't be shy. If you are interested and what to come by my house I would be happy to show you as I have lots to do in the next 2 weeks with many different varieties of fruits.
