Graydon, those spindly branches are young enough to force back budding on to or near the trunk. As an experiment in the spring, cut the candles on a couple of the "useless" ones back to here you have 6 needles or so left. Fertilize and watch. I'll bet you get buds back to the trunk on those branches. John
