When I first began scouting I found rubs and scrapes and a single huge pile of deer feces,so I placed my tree stand about 20 yards from that location. On opening day, I saw 1 mature doe, who was outside crossbow range but I have yet to see a buck in that location and haven't found deer poop there since. Is it possible that all this sign was made by a doe? I don't have a trail camera yet, so I need to find a less expensive way to figure out what is in that area.

The situation was nicely summed up by NJGameHunter. Does will visit scrapes, but don't make them (or rubs). Don't know when your rut is, but it sounds like you've found part of a buck's area, so check to see if he freshens up the scrape or hits the rub again. When the rut kicks in, he may lose his caution and pop out in the daytime. Good luck.
