I took a different approach with snowmobile/4 wheelers. 1st I made some wide trails with brush hog and marked them 'TRAIL' and 'STAY ON TRAIL'. This keeps 90% of the traffic where I want it.

In areas where I like to keep the nature preserved, I simply drop a big tree right across the trail - snowmobiles hate trying to get around stuff like this.

Last, in my fields with winter crops, I drag a few big dead trees out in the fallow strips, which gives the impression (in winter) that there are hazards all through the field. It has worked well. Lots of no trespass signs, and some dead trees.

In summer, I chase the 4 wheelers out with a fast truck and a mean dog. The word gets around :)
