For the uphill challenge we would like to release, using wind power, a puttbot guide which would be stored vertically in the tee off area and then fall onto the ramp. Is this ok?

A If you are raising this guide using wind energy, then allowing it to fall, then yes, you may use the guide. However, if you are just setting up the guide in the tee box area and letting it “fall” in, this is considered to be assisting the puttbot up the hill with something other than energy generated from the wind. Setting up the guide is a manual effort (human power) even though the guide falls into place. This will not be allowed. Consider the tee box and wind harvesting areas to also have a vertical component: 3 feet, the height of the uphill rise. When the components are removed from the paper box and set up to begin competition, they must stay within the tee box and wind harvest area as well as stay within the 3 ft height. After competition begins, the wind energy can raise the components higher or move them where they need to go.
