WHILE DEPARTING, THE ACFT BEGAN VEERING LEFT AS THE TAILWHEEL CAME OFF THE GROUND DURING THE TAKEOFF ROLL. IT ROLLED ONTO A HARD DIRT SHOULDER TO THE LEFT OF THE ASPHALT RWY. THE PLT REPORTED THAT HE CORRECTED THE DRIFT BY APPLYING RIGHT RUDDER & THE ACFT REACTED PROMPTLY; HOWEVER, DIRECTIONAL CONTROL WAS NOT REESTABLISHED. THE ACFT REENTERED THE PAVED RWY SURFACE & LATERALLY CROSSED THE RWY. WHILE THE PLT WAS ATTEMPTING TO REGAIN CONTROL, THE LEFT TIRE FAILED FROM EXCESSIVE SIDE LOADS.
