I do not have a full bag of clubs, and I do have an adjustable driver. I was wondering if it would be within the rules to adjust it during the round, so long as the number of setting changes did not exceed the club limit.

Pretty easy to find yourself:

http://www.usga.org/Rule-Books/Rules...and-Decisions/ Rule 4 is called "clubs" and rule 4-2 says "playing characteristics changed".

Source: Rules of Golf 4-2. Playing Characteristics Changed and Foreign Material a. Playing Characteristics Changed During a stipulated round, the playing characteristics of a club must not be purposely changed by adjustment or by any other means.
