I've used the ball of the foot to check the legs of someone trying to throw a kick, and in a more stomp like motion, but never a part of a roundhouse. It would seem that you would need to clear the hips out a lot farther than in a normal roundhouse. I guess I'll have to give it a honest try and see if I can use it.
