Default RE: Deer is quartering away - aim for heart or both lungs?

I usually aim for both lungs on quartering away shots. But i recently harvested my buck with a quartering away heart shot. Then again, i was completely confident in my ability to make the shot. If I hadnt, then i would have opted for the double lung. I say the rule of thumb should be that if you are in doubt, aim for the lungs. Lung shots are extremely lethal as well!!
