Bracing a Weeping Beech/ weeping trees

[Treeation]

I have a mature weeping beech that just lost a big horizontal during drought period, it's in a relatively high target area so I am exploring the possibility of using non invasive bracing such as cobra 8 tonne to tether a couple of large horizontals. Its a tricky one as there's not necessarily any substantial limbs above the horizontals so might have to be attached slightly below possible breakage points so there might be a bit slack in system, which will act more like a snatch I guess. Wondered if any one else has ever braced this way?

No but I have trussed up a leader as if it were about to be rigged off as a temporary measure, as a better than doing nothing option, I think that's kind of what you're describing? Don't think using usual cabling would be wise as minimal heat resistance, if you are thinking of a cobra type set up where any of the material can rub past itself in then event of a failure, unless you leave redirects etc up there?
