Couplers including a hook and a gate member. The hook includes a base member and a crook. The crook extends from the base member and includes a base leg, a bend, and a hook leg. The base leg extends from the base member. The bend extends in a curved path from the base leg. The hook leg extends from the bend opposite the base leg and terminates in a hook tip. The gate member is coupled to the base member where the gate member extends into the crook and terminates proximate to the hook tip. The gate member is configured to resiliently deflect away from the hook tip when an eye is selectively pressed between and the hook tip and the gate member. The gate member is biased to resiliently return to a position proximate the hook tip once the eye moves past the hook tip.
