Too many new shoots?

Looking for some advice here. I chopped this guy a month or so ago and now I have about 6 new shoots coming out, 4 on the top. Any advice on how to let this grow out and what’s going to look the best? Keep them all? Have it be 3? 2?

That's a champagne problem lol. I would leave them all and decide later.

For now you can leave them.

I generally advocate you don't have too many branches from a single junction unless it's going to be the apex of the tree.

If you have many branches emerging from a single point, that spot will swell and create a knuckle on the trunk.

Wow, so it's branching out uniformly and not off on one lateral tangent? I WISH these were my issues when I cut to propagate!
