Damaged a club in anger: can I replace it?
In anger you hit your 7-iron against a tree and bend the shaft. What may you do?
Answer
Keep using it, but neither repair nor replace it
You may always keep using a club damaged during the round, however it was damaged. Since 2023 you may also repair or replace it, unless you damaged it through abuse, as here in anger. Then your only option is to keep playing with the bent club.
