You can't assume the contact made the shooter miss the shot (after all plenty of shots are missed when there is no contact at all).

It depends on how you look at advantage disadvantage. Almost every D1 official I've heard or talked to at camps say to hold the whistle and see if the ball goes down. I'm not sure that is right for a HS game, but that's they way I was taught. I know I'm very patient with shooting foul calls.
