I forgot about that. You are right. Stroke play 2 strokes per hole, max of 4 strokes/round.
Match play, deduction of a hole for each hole where a breach of rule occured, max 2 holes deducted. It seems that this doesn't mean taking 2 holes away AND giving them to opponent, but just adjusting the score by 2. Suppose you are 2 up at the 3rd tee, and discover you have 15 clubs, by my reading of the rule, this would make the match All Square, not 2 down.
But of course, since you turned in your score and only later realized too many clubs, you should be disqualified for turning in too low a score.
