Should I remove the power branch?

My yew, cannot decide if removing the lower branch would be advisable or remove the uniqueness of the yew?
Your input will be much appreciated .

I would keep it, but perhaps simplify it a bit so it complements rather the competes with the rest of the tree.

I agree with Marty. The branch is a good one, but right now it’s a little hard to tell what’s supposed to be the main tree.

It’s keeper I’d say. Nice yew BTW

Oh man! I see the temptation to remove it!

It’s coarse, simpler, and not as interesting as the main trunk. To me it kind of takes the perceived age out of it.

I support you if you want to go for it!

Also, I think it’s pretty cool how the pot accommodates for the branch as it is in the pic

If keep i‘d integrate the dead live with the main piece
