Lofts differ on 9 of the 9 clubs the two sets share. A lower point is a stronger loft.

What the differences mean

At the 7-iron, the 695.CB is 34° and the Forged 755 is 35°, a 1° gap. Each degree of loft is worth roughly 3 to 4 yards of carry at the same swing speed, so the 695.CB should carry roughly 3 to 4 yards further with that club, on a slightly lower, shallower flight than the Forged 755. Across the 9 clubs both sets share, the Forged 755 averages 1.4° weaker, with the largest gap at the 2-iron (17° vs 19°). The pitching wedges are 46° and 47°; the stronger one leaves a 4° jump to a 50° gap wedge, which matters when planning wedge gapping.

Both are players irons, built for roughly scratch to 10 handicaps. Small-to-mid cavity backs with traditional lofts, modest offset and workable shaping for low-handicap players. Because they target the same golfer, the decision comes down to the specific loft, feel and shaping differences rather than who the sets are made for.

Both heads are listed as forged. With the build method this similar, differences in feel come down to head size, sole width, topline and offset rather than how the heads are made.

Both sets were introduced in 2006, so this is a choice between two models from the same lineup rather than an upgrade: Titleist designed them to sit side by side for different players.

Which should you choose?

The Forged 755 is the weaker-lofted set — up to 2° weaker than the 695.CB. That trades raw distance for a steeper landing angle and more predictable stopping power into greens.
