About the TaylorMade ICW 11
The ICW 11 - Inner Cavity Weighting - was one of a pair of early-90s TaylorMade irons, launched alongside the better-player ICW 5 with the ICW 11 aimed at the everyday player. A hidden internal cavity concentrates mass behind the strike zone while the compact head keeps a thin topline, and offset progresses through the set from long irons to wedges. Lofts are classic for the era, with a 34.5-degree 7-iron and 48-degree pitching wedge across a 1-iron-to-sand-wedge range. TaylorMade's own timeline files the model under 1991, though used-market listings often date the ICW family a few years earlier. Specs below are the men's build; women's lengths ran an inch shorter with no 1-iron.

Frequently asked questions
What is the loft of a TaylorMade ICW 11 7-iron?
The ICW 11 7-iron has a loft of 34.5 degrees, with a 62-degree lie and a 36.5-inch men's length.
What does ICW stand for on TaylorMade irons?
Inner Cavity Weighting: a hollow internal cavity that moves mass to the perimeter and behind the strike zone while the back of the head stays clean, an early alternative to the visible cavityback.
What is the difference between the ICW 5 and ICW 11?
TaylorMade developed them as a pair: the ICW 5 was the compact model for better players, while the ICW 11 carried more progressive offset and forgiveness for the everyday player. Both share the 1-iron-to-sand-wedge range.
Finding a used set
The TaylorMade ICW 11 ran from 1991 to 1993 and is no longer in production, so the used market is the only source. Search eBay, 2nd Swing, Golf Avenue and the PGA Tour Superstore trade-in listings, and check the loft and lie against the chart above before buying — sets this age have often been bent from standard.

- TaylorMade Irons Legacy timeline, ICW 11 entry under 1991: 'one for the better player (ICW 5) and one for the everyday player (ICW 11), both featured progressive offset throughout the set'
- Stock shafts from period sets in the used market: TayLite Plus factory builds and Dynamic Gold S300 builds are both common (Mr Topes Golf, 2nd Swing, BKBigGolf listings); no factory sell sheet naming a single stock shaft was found
- Year note: the gap analysis and some listings date the ICW line to 1988-1990; TaylorMade's own timeline entry (1991) is used here and the discrepancy is left visible
