Certainly with the ball, I don't think there is with the club, Others will know for sure.

No penalty.

You might get penalised with a broken club or shaft, but apart from that prob a bad shot if you hit it before the ball

Why would you get penalised for having a broken club?

No penalty.

The shame is penalty enough.

I expect Steve does not mean a penalty stroke, but that the cost to you is a broken club or shaft.
