Default TW can you recommend me a racquet?

I've been using the Pure Storm Tour for a while now and find my self not being able to produce enough power to keep the ball deep consistently and i mishit pretty often cause i think the weight wears me out from having to swing so hard cause of the low power. i don't really like head racquets cause of the handle either. and i didn't like the MG extreme or the PDR

i'd like a racquet with:
players racquet weight
more power
headsize no bigger than 100 but no smaller than a 95
great control
open string pattern (would that effect me if i hit the ball reletively flat but can still use topspin.

i'm a 4.0 player

what do you think tw?

Do you care about beam thickness?

You might want to try the Wilson n or k 6-1 95 16 by 18. It's got nice heft, a good deal of power, open string pattern. Only downside is that it's got a fairly thick beam...

Along with those, you might also want to try Yonex RDS 001 MP or RDS002 Light.
