What the differences mean
Every club the two sets share has exactly the same loft, starting with a 30° 7-iron. On paper there is no distance or trajectory difference: with the same swing, a 7-iron from either set should launch and carry about the same. The real differences are in how the heads are built, how they look at address and how they feel at impact, none of which a spec table can show. Lie angles and lengths match as well, so any fitting adjustment made to one set would carry straight over to the other.
The sets are built differently: the 699 Pro V2 runs 3-iron to SW (10 clubs), the 699 V2 4-iron to SW (9 clubs).
The 699 Pro V2 is a players distance iron and the 699 V2 a game improvement iron, so they sit one step apart on the forgiveness scale. The 699 V2 is the more forgiving design, with a wider sole, more offset and more perimeter weighting for roughly 10 to 25 handicaps. The 699 Pro V2 trades some of that for a more compact head, thinner topline and more control over flight and shape, which suits roughly 5 to 15 handicaps who want extra distance from a compact head.
Both heads are listed as two-piece hollow body, TPE resin injected. Both use hollow-body heads, so both trade a little feel for face flex and launch help.
Both sets were introduced in 2023, so this is a choice between two models from the same lineup rather than an upgrade: Sub 70 designed them to sit side by side for different players.
Which should you choose?
The 699 Pro V2 and 699 V2 share the same lofts on every club on file, so the difference is in head construction, feel and forgiveness rather than trajectory.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Sub 70 699 Pro V2 stronger lofted than the 699 V2?
