You did not mention the size of the field. In small areas where I have such a problem, I usually bush hog the saplings on the second cutting by cutting while in reverse gear. I try to cut them as close to the ground as possible and since they were splintered on the initial cutting it is not too difficult to further reduce the "stumps" prior to driving over them. I am concerned more for the rear tires but if I am going backwards I can hear what I am cutting and that warns me as to what I will be running over. There is a company in Texas (1-800-NO-FLATS) that recaps airplane tires (14 plus ply) for this application. Their front tire sizes are attractively priced.
