Default A thought exercise about guy wires

Please don't get upset! I don't intend to actually do this!
All you antenna experts out there. If I have a tower say 60 feet tall
and
I can only put one set of guy wires up, should they go near the top of
the structure or near the middle?

What are the forces that the wind exerts on a tower and are these
forces evenly
distributed?

Thanks for your help.
