Maybe it would help to post a general summary of "what is a foul tip." Speaking newly changed and interpreted NFHS rules.

A foul tip must be ALL of the following (if it misses even one, it is not a foul tip):

1. A batted ball
2. Goes directly (no perceptable arc) to the catcher's hands or glove
3. Be caught by the catcher.

That's it. A foul tip is treated exactly the same as a swing and a miss. It is a strike on the batter and the ball is live.
