For holes bigger than 1/2" you can use a metal cutting hole saw bit. I think they work better than conventional bits in many cases.
You may also want to get some cutting oil at your hardware store. Look in the plumbing section. The oil helps a lot.

Good point PB. I've used WD-40 to lubricate and cool the bit at times. ...and was thinking of doing that again when I drill the bucket. Is cutting oil that much better?

Well, all it took was a 1/2 inch hole. Worked like a charm. I didn't have to use the tapered bit. I figure I'll return it at that price, and buy one when I know I need it. We'll see.

I'm having the same thought Jerry. But Abby has her eye on a new light and other yard stuff that taking back the bit could help my pocket book on. Ask me in 30 days ....I'll probably still have it.

My toothbar doesn't get much action. It seems anything I need to dig into, I can dig into just fine without it. Plus I use my bucket forks every week and they won't fit over the toothbar. And of course there was back dragging snow this winter.... toothbars and backdragging don't mix (lol). I'll never get rid of it though. I might need it some day.

I considered that also CH. I back drag a lot, and use forks and a clamp on ball hitch a lot. I'm hoping they will open wide enough to go over the toothbar as i do use them more than I will be digging. At least it's only two bolts to remove the toothbar so just a minor inconvenience if I do have to remove it.
