"Secondary pruning"

I pruned our apple and pear trees mid winter and now the buds are breaking out I find that some buds are quite a distance back from where I made a cut. (I was convinced the lump was a bud at the time).  Should I cut back the branch to the recommended distance from the bud now I can see them?

Cheers and thanks in advance.   Tony.

Thanks for that advice, the bits aren't bad, just extending (2" - 3") way past the buds.

Cheers,    Tony.
