I did exactly that rather then use separate 250' long conductors to each
tower.  Technically it should be grounded at the tower and the panel
entrance anyway.

Does this standard apply even if, as in my case, the tower is 190 feet
from the house entrance? Does it need to be a direct, dedicated
connection, or could a hardline shield, for example, be used for the tower
to house electrical service ground connection. In cross section, even
LDF4-50A is a lot beefier than #6.
