Not under federation rules cowboyfan. A kick is a kick is a kick......
A kick never ends until it is possessed or becomes dead by rule. 2.23.2
AND
Force is never a factor on kicks going into R's EZ. 2.13.4a
The enforcement for a bat on the free kick is the previous spot since this is a loose ball play. So K can accept and re-kick from 15 yards up. Or, decline and give R the touchback.
(BTW, it may have been obstruction somewhere, that just makes it look and smell like an out. Award the base where appropriate.)
