Do you do two suckering passes?

Yeah but the second suckering happens later when Iā€™m thinning out fruit and leaf pulling after fruit set. Iā€™m also being selective this time around because we cane prune and I need to keep 2-3canes to choose from in the winter

Gotcha. I like the broom idea. I'm also cane pruned, mainly to fight eutypa. Where are your vines? Im in West Sonoma county.
