Rules of 21 putting (rule clarification)

[discgolfchampion]

Ok, so my friends and I play it where making it in is 3 points, hitting chains is 2, hitting basket is 1, and hitting the bottom pole is -1. We were betting discs so it's kinda important. I was at 19 and we were doing 2 discs. So I hit a put that put me and 22, if I hit the pole for -1 for my second putt, would that putt me at 21? Because they said I automatically go down since I went over but I still had a chance to get to 21. So what is correct

You should have aimed for the pole first throw then made the putt.

This comes up often in Washers and Ladderball and other such games where you have to land on 21. I prefer to play where you don't count your score till your round is complete however many play your score is adjusted throughout your round. Either way works, just have to determine your "house rules" are and be consistent.
