if you damage your club through losing your temper then you can't replace or have it repaired for that round.. however if it is damaged in the normal course of play (playing a shot), then you have three choices;
-you can carry on using the damaged club;
-you can have it repired or replaced without delaying play too much, or;
-you can replace it, but not with one borrowed from anyone else playing the course..

No, you can be DQed and you purposely harm the course by throwing or your club at the green or a fellow golfer. In fact, there have been times with PGA players have had there clubs ruined and they continue to play and sometimes even at the turn they get new clubs to replace the damaged ones. However if you want to be 100% consult with the USGA. Their website is www.usga.org.

if the club becomes so damaged it may not conform to the r&a standard which would include safety aspect. by using your club after it has been damaged you are putting your fellow golfers at risk of injury if say the head flew off and as a consequence of this i would imagine disqualification would be highly probable but that should be the least of your worries if you were to injure a fellow golfer. Negligence on your part could lead the club owners and you to be issued with compensation claims.

no u should not use it. the golf club will need to be replaced after the outing, to achive better scores. i have played in matches many times and all u have to do is not use that club.

it is against the rules of golf to play with any non-conforming club, if it's damaged in the normal course of play you may replace it, but you can not play with it...

no, but you'd be pretty stupid to keep using them if they're damaged. can't replace them either. you essentially are just down one club.
