Pawn Grab Drill


This drill will help you to see the quickest way to move your piece to capture your opponent’s pawns. This drill is particularly useful for the rook and the pawn endings.
To work this drill place a white rock on the square and then place any number of black pawn on the board. See the diagram given.
Now I your mind’s eye, calculate the shortest number of moves required for the rook to capture all the pawns. Now moves the rook to each square on the board and repeat the process.
After you have gone through each square on the board with this particular pawn, set-up yourself and you will notice different patterns.
