I have heard some things about the new Titleist 695mb that are pretty good. You might want to check those out. More like the mp32s than the mp37s though.

I believe the 690 MBs are easier to hit - they're comparable to Mizuno's MP-33 line of irons. The MP-37s are smaller with less offset, and result in a lower trajectory - they're more comparable to the Titleist 670s.

I've hit both. the 695 MBs are a lot more responsive and softer. If you have heard the termanology of how an iron feels like a hot knife through butter, these cut mustard.

The only advice we can give; is to go hit them for yourself.

Yeah go hit them yourself...but as far as these two irons the 690 are probably a little easier, but you wont really see much difference in either of them.

One thing to look out for is that titleist irons are bent up 2 degrees higher than mizuno out of the facorty (maybe you knew that). So might be best to get fitted for whatever you choose.

My personal recommendation is the MP-32. That is what I have and it's the best iron I've hit.

good question, as it's not Callaway vs Titleist, but Mizuno vs. Titleist...

Have your tried
Ben Hogan Apex (owned by Callaway)
http://www.benhogan.com/products/irons/index.html#p1
or
KZG Bades or KZG ZO Blades?
http://www.kzgolf.com/

I've played with 690.MB and demoed Mizuno MP-37s:
MP-37s maybe are closer to Titleist 680s (or to 670s) than are to 690.MBs.
690.MBs are often compared to Mizuno MP-33s.

I really liked the 690.MBs a tad better than I like my 670s.

mp 32....money man....

but if you are set on 37's vs. 695's....go Mizuno ....if i replace the 32's (aint gonna happen) but if it would be with the 37's.....

i tried the 695's....took them out for a round....absolutely the best blade titleist has ever made....almost a better club than the muzuno t zoids....but in no way comparable to the 37's....

after you pure a Mizuno blade, a pured 695 would feel like topping jack nicklaus's old 1 iron....

if God played golf he'd play Mizuno irons....

those 37's are super sweet....but i feel the 32 is the best golf club that has ever been or will ever be made.....and man do they look good....

here's the shot that sold me on them....took out the demo , THE DEMO, 6 iron and had 180 into a pin on a back shelf....figured .... let's see if these editors have a clue...is this club all that.....purest thing i have felt EVER....flew it pin high and the **** thing spun back about 6 inches leaving me an 8 footer for bird....bought them very soon thereafter....how many times have you spun back a 6 iron????.....

even the 3 grabs the brake....I cant praise these clubs enough....

Anyone hitting mp32s is a player!!! I was just trying out some clubs and these were killing me. Time to get better with my ultra game improvement irons first. The funny thing was I had no problem hitting the mp60s.

If you are worried about ease of hitting you are looking at the wrong clubs...

yet you have since put a set of mizunos in your bag...

i'd disagree with this poster - the titleists are definitely harder feeling than the mizunos, but it's up to the individual golfer to figure out which they like best. some like the titleist claiming they're more solid.

i like soft.

If this is a concern, you need to stop shopping for blades. I agree that Titleist have a harsher feel than mizuno, but try for yourself.

I've tried Titleist blades several times and they were surprisingly harsh feeling compared with the MP14s, MP33s and Cleveland CG1s I'm used to. The MP37s and MP67s don't seem as buttery to me as the clubs above but the MP32s and 60s intrigue me as they also have great feel (although the 60s have an outrageously high traj).
