Default Racket help

I'm looking for a racket with a 100 sq inch head and an open string pattern that doesn't have too much power. I realize it isn't likely to find one. Just wondering if y'all had any ideas?

I'm not sure what the headsize is for the BLX Pro open, maybe something in the pure storm line?

Do you want power or control or a mix?

Maybe the new BLX ProStaff 100. Certainly not as powerful as a Pure Drive

This racket is fairly light in stock form allowing you to add weight onto it to fit your needs.

Try Gold 99, it is not 100sq inch but 1 sq inch can be accepted I guess. It is low powered but not really low and will improve your game by increasing your swing speed with generous sweetspot. I trying to move from Gold99 to IG Rad pro but my FH is still not the same as it was with Gold though it added some serve speed. I might soon go back to gold.
