I would like to know is it normal for your average score to rise by 5 shots having just reached `master` level !!
When you tier up your average score resets. To reach master your average score would need to have dipped to 67 or lower. Your first ranked round as a master creates your new average score, which in your case was 35, so your new average score is 70, (twice your first nine hole score of 35).
Your best 40* ranked rounds will go to make up your average score, so as you are a new master your score will fluctuate with each ranked round you play until you have played 40* rounds. After that, any ranked round that is lower than any of the 40* best rounds that go towards making up your average score will result in your average score dropping. Any rounds that are higher than your best 40* rounds will leave your average score unchanged.
*number varies with each tier
Think you and WGTicon should switch names, Scott. Your reply was a LOT more use than "your score resets". Resets to what, for crying out loud? Thank you for making sense of my 6 shot jump; it was my assumption, but I realised there is little logic to this place, so I thought I'd better check ;)
