Brome Squirrel Buster Plus
A weight-activated feeder that shuts its ports when a squirrel climbs on and holds 5.1 lbs of seed; the catch is it won't stop grackles or starlings, and the pole adapter is sold separately.
- Buy it if
- A dad who's tired of squirrels emptying his feeders every morning.
- Skip it if
- He wants a camera; this is a plain feeder.

Alternatives worth comparing
NewPoint, click, exact yardage to the flag, and the slope feature switches off for tournaments. The catch: it's a laser, so he still has to aim it at something he can see.
NewA pocket-size launch monitor that shows ball speed, carry and club speed on his phone at the range or at home. The catch: virtual rounds need a paid subscription, and indoors he needs a net and space.
NewTwo thin warmers that snap together with magnets, three heat levels, USB charging. The catch: about 4 hours of heat, so it covers a round, not a whole day.
NewThe best-known smart feeder, with a 2K camera and a solar roof so it rarely needs charging; the catch is that automatic bird ID sits behind the optional Family Premium plan.
