I would guess it would do it easily once you find the appropriate point.

It was a while ago, but, I seem to remember it was a short bodkin on a half inch shaft.

I put the nail back in the hole immediately. LOL I have some old tires in the padduck that I could take a shot at but I don't think I can pull enough poundage to get the job done.
