You would think that the CDF would block the human player, however, our human player actually was able to bowl over it, without any robot assistance. No matter how you try to stop the human players, they will always find ways around it.

That said, I think that it is already hard enough to to bowl it over the rock wall, ramparts, or moat, so you don't need to make it even harder. It would decrease the value of the human player, and make all but the best human players much less valuable. Then again, after much practice, it might become more common for HPs to bowl it over spots 3,4, and 5. Also, your idea would be great for field reset times.
