Garmin Connect and Wahoo Fitness Discrepancy

I recently upgraded to the Fēnix 6 Sapphire. For HR monitoring, I use a Tickr X.

For the sake of curiosity and general interest, I track activities with the Fenix (paired with the Tickr X). I also track them using the Tickr X using the Wahoo app. 

I have noticed that there’s a somewhat material difference in the results between the data collated in Garmin Connect and the data logged in the Tickr app. Even when I control for distance, the Wahoo Tickr app always pegs my aerobic decoupling/heart rate drift about 3% greater than in Garmin Connect.

Has anyone else encountered a discrepancy like this?
