Thats usually a sign that your saddle is to small...and as to the ? I have an old eddleman circle y and its 18 years old and by far my fav saddle..it fits a variety of horses....m
I have 3 of the Circle Y's and I love them. They are my favorite and fit a wide variety of horses. I have never had an issue with my feet getting behind me except in the Marlene Cactus, which I sold because of that issue. However, that saddle may have been a fluke, even though I bought it new. I have ridden in one other Marlene Cactus and didn't have that problem. I love the Circle Y's.
My saddle now is a 14 inch and I have about a palms length between myself and the cantle. I do not feel secure in it. I don't think the saddle is too small. I am 5"2 and 100lbs.

I have two of the Cactus Marlenes and love them. They've fit a many different horses and I've never had a problem with getting my feet behind me. I've always felt very secrure in the saddle.
Marlene McRae Cactus saddles is the only thing I ride in! I love these saddles!!! I've never had a problem with my feet going back. If my feet go back that's usually my fault.......not my saddles'.
