Got it. Still, the Apples may be an option; it's just that for flats other than by goathead, I get perhaps 1 every year (I think Jan has the same experience in Seattle or wherever he is) so I can't really speak to that sort of puncture (and I'm glad of that; our goatheads are certainly bad enough.
I certainly wouldn't use Compass tires where nails and wire and glass were common. Compass tires and similar thin-skin tires work for me with goatheads only because of modern sealants, but these are notorious for being less effective for larger punctures.
