Summer pruning

[wlgblg]

I have some Marquette vines and they seem to have a lot of vine growth. so was wondering if it is alright to cut some of the long low hangers out of the way at this time of year

You haven't given enough information yet to give you a proper answer. How old are they and what type of training system are you using? When did you have budbreak?

 

[wlgblg]

they are 5 6 year old . i have a 2 wire training sys. bud break was about 6 to 8 weeks ago

Being that old, you may definitely get rid of shoots that are in the way.
