  9" is good.  Don't hesitate to fly without worrying about the prop clearance.

    After eight months I am finally ready to test fly my Vel after repairing the gear. When I installed the booties, it was necessary to shorten the gear length slightly. I have a three blade prop 64 x 72 on now but am a little concerned about tip clearance. I have 9" to the ground. I have raised the nose to simulate rotation and it looks OK but I have no weight inside. Any body else have this situation? Your thoughts are appreciated.
