The key is to run the least amount of air possible and the tire still be functional. Soft tires are harder to puncture.

I make it easy on him: drill a hole in the tire large enough to take a garden hose and flush it out. a bit of water is much nicer than a sticky mess.

I blew a tire on my ranger in Jan, caught a bush hogged stump (we're reclaiming farm land here so we have 30 some ought acres full of stumps to run over) and ripped those pos pxt's right to rim. Replaced them with kenda executioners and haven't had a problem since.

I'll have to try that next time I take a set in. Thanks for the tip!

I popped a truck tire in the woods but never an atv tire. I put a piece of a tree branch through it.
