Wow, I have a collection of broken rods in the garage. They're is over a dozen at least, maybe closer to 20. This is spread out over the last 18 years or so. Only one snapped in the midle. The others have the last 4 to 6 inches broke off because I caught them in a door, stepped on them on the deck, or broke them trying to get a jig off of a stump

exactly the same for me. I tried to swing in a big one covered in slop and used my palm under the stripper guide. POW!! Still got the fish in.

2 13 Envy 7'3" MH on hooksets, both 5+ fish, replaced them with Dobyns. Also had my drag cranked down tight, I've learned from reading posts to back that drag down a bit to allow some slip to avoid future breaks

2-3 per year on average, most are from filpping real heavy cover with braid or trying to drag fish out of the slop with braid. With that said I have only returned one due to manufacturing defect as I feel it's my fault.

1 Broke a brand new Falcon Cara Reaction on hookset. They replaced it for free. I still think it was a bad spot in the blank. It broke about halfway to the first eye from the reel. And I mean it splintered big time. Been lucky the rest of the time.
