Default Questionable Result?

Okay here is my problem. I went shooting today and took an shot at a jackrabbit at about 20-22yards. It was partly hidden in a small brush but i could still make out its outline by the way the ears were positioned. A large clumb of brush was about two half feet to my right. I lined up my pin on where i figured the body was and let my arrow fly. My arrow hit down low near the dirt(at bottom of the rabbit) and large cloud of dust flew and the rabbit bolted into the larger brush. I could hear it crawling through the brush and it was making alot of noise as if my arrow was in it. I looked at where the rabbit was and couldn't find any blood but i couldn't find the arrow either. I couldn't track him down because of how thick the brush was. I looked all around for my arrow and couldn't find it. Does this sound like i may have hit him but in an non vital area? I am going to go out there tomorrow and see if maybe i can find him or at least look for more evidence. If I in fact hit him, it would be my first bowkill. What is everyone's outlook at this? Hit? Miss?
