Anthony,
 
It really depends on how much wind you get, as well as rootstock.  In Kansas (third windiest state in the Union) you stake any rootstocks that don't have excellent anchorage, and keep them staked until the trees are big.  Some rootstocks need staked forever.  Aggressive pruning helps keep them standing.
