Are you asking if it was fair or foul after you called it foul? Foul.

Are you asking if you screwed the pooch? Yup.

Are you asking for a better mechanic? Wait until the ball comes to rest in foul territory or strikes something in foul territory before calling it foul.
Not quite. ONLY if the ball touches, or is touched, by something or someone NOT part of the field. If the ball hits a stone or backspins into fair territory it's fair. If a player touches the ball in foul territory, it's foul.
