I don't understand your question about prop strike. If you allow the tail skid to drag the ground, unless the strike to the tail was severe and caused the plane to loose control and pitch violently forward on the nose wheel(and nose gear was to callapse) I don't beleive you could have a prop strike.
My PA28 Turbo Arrow has the prop on the opposite end from the tail skid.
If you are in the habit of allowing your tail skid to drag, a little training and landing practice might help.
My next flight may have the same results; however, I don't expect to use the tail skid as a tail wheel.
