Do you have QoS enabled? What does "show queueing interface Gi9/29" tell
you?

Output drops are "egress buffer overflow" drops, so technically it
happens because the box tries to send a packet out an interface already
in use (transmitting another packet) when there is no buffer space to
store the packet until transmission. Micro-bursts and oversubscription
are possible causes. Short queues exacerbate the problem. With "mls qos"
enabled and no interface-specific adjustments you could have (too) short
queues for the relevant traffic.

Also:
