This says prune prior to bud break:

Late spring and summer pruning stress the tree.

No reason you can't judiciously remove some branches... the deer keep
mine pruned all year. I suggest reading up on how to make the cut,
best to angle the cut so that the top protrudes more to shed rain/snow
or dry rot will occur. This -/ Not this -\
