Default couple of newb questions

I have been browsing the forums, watching bowhunting shows and reading some magazines trying to figure out how to set up a new bow that I plan to buy. I shot a couple of bows last week and I am still considering what to buy. I am thinking of having my new bow set up with a string loop. I normally shoot with a 28" draw length but I was told if I want a string loop I would need to take an inch off my draw lenght making it 27". How much speed will I lose if I do this. Also, the bow I am thinking of buying has a 37.5 ata. I also shot a much shorter Archery Research bow that I liked a lot (just didn't like the price tag) what is the advantage or disadvantage of shooting a shorter bow versus a longer one?

I am sure these questions sound pretty elementary to a lot of members here but thanks in advance for helping a novice.
