Drop-crotch

If a drop-crotch cut will remove too much foliage from a limb, the limb either should be removed entirely, or not cut at all.

I tried on a pair of drop-crotch pants one day because they were trendy and I thought maybe, just maybe, I could rock them.

Sometimes restoring a top or drop-crotching or even selectively removing certain branches will achieve the same result that the client had in mind — they may call it topping but in reality what I do is far different.
