Of course I didn't realize this, and thought this is just the way they feel. I hit the ground a few times. I finally ran them on the loosest setting, and most of the problems were gone! I would however unclip unexpectedly on little jumps and stuff. About a year ago I switched to eggbeaters. I liked them so much that I put them on all my bikes. Lots of float, easy to get out, and I never disengage until I'm ready. The float isn't for everyone, and I still know people that prefer the locked in feel of the Shimanos. I remember the confidence level dropped for a few months until clipless pedals became natural. Little obstacles scared me, because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get out on time. These days it's so natural that I find my self doing the unclipping motion even on flat pedals! I started off on clipless pedals with the Shimanos too, and they were WAY too tight.
