NF - end of the kick or any spot of first touching or the 20 if the ball reaches the goal line.
I think the important think here is that if K attempts a field goal, and it is 'downed' at the 1, R takes over 1/10 at the 1.

I think this adds some incentive for trying a long FG (of course if R is smart, they will have someone back there to return it).
