Summoning itself is not difficult. Naruto just sucked at ninjutsu. It's so not true, it's bordering ridiculousness.

Naruto was a prodigy at ninjutsu. You know, given how he was able to use the Shadow Clone Jutsu without Kurama's help and all.

And yeah, summoning Gamabunta required no effort. Except being in a life-and-death situation, but that's obviously not a huge deal... And it certainly didn't require Kurama's chakra...

And a bigger creature requires more chakra, that's why summoning tadpoles was easy; Naruto was still under the five pronged seal of Orochimaru's. Without Kurama, the best he could do was Gamatatsu, as we saw in the "Searching for Tsunade arc". It's like you don't even know how the jutsu works... O_o
