Glider tug design

Just watched a tug and glider from Booker which did not seem to be climbing very well and wondered if anyone has designed a glider tug whose aerodynamic characteristics more closely approximate those of a glider, for instance high aspect ratio wings with a profile matching the glider L/D curve?
