Well, I've heard of other people having success with this method, but this past weekend was my first experience with it. Putting in some fall food plots in some pretty weedy overgrown stuff, I am always on the lookout for sheds running the tractor and have never found one.
This time my tractor found the shed on it's own. The crazy thing is that I don't know where it picked it up. I dropped my disc and was switching over to my broadcast spreader and walking back to the tractor and saw it stuck in the tire.
It actually took some effort to get it pulled out and I was dreading a huge hiss of escaping air when I did, but the way the tine ended up in the lug it didn't puncture it and no leak! Not sure if you planned it out and tried to place the shed intentionally you could get it to stick that far into the tire without puncturing it. It was at least 3" into the lug. None of the tines were broken either.
Very happy to find the shed, and even happier that it didn't come at the cost of a new tire!
Thought I would share.
