[QUOTE="Dadatwins, post: 923932, member: 4223"] cable to what? The top has the defect, so it could only be cabled to the ground not to itself. I would agree with Jomoco that only cabling the top to the ground would probably cause more harm, since the top would lose flexibility. It would be my guess to eliminate the possibility of the top breaking out the entire tree would have to be guyed to the ground, so no movement exists. That would be pretty massive undertaking and require substantial cabling. I would think option of reducing the top would mitigate some risk, but not all might be best advice. [/QUOTE]
