I guess how much protection you plan, depends on how much lighting happens in 
your area.  I have yet to see a "text book lighting protection" setup in my 
area.  Seems like most people around here just ground their tower with one to 
three rods and forget it.

My parents have liked in their house on the ranch for 50 years and have lost 
their TV once.

My tower is in the planning stage.  I'm going to do more than the One to three 
ground rods, but I don't plan on spending a lot of time on lighting protection.

In the Central Valley of California.
